Queen Elizabeth II's wedding day was on Nov. 20, at Westminster Abbey in London, England.

The 13-foot-long (four meters) tulle train was embroidered with pearls and crystals as well as appliqué duchess satin; it was inspired by Botticelli's 1482 painting "Primavera" and was symbolic of rebirth and growth after World War II.
